South Korean Lady-Boy Wins Miss International Queen 2010

After four days of enjoying themselves touring the different venues arranged in their honor, the finale of Miss International Queen 2010 went off in sparkling splendor and not a little disappointment for those who failed to make the grade.

The finale of the 6th Miss International Queen 2010 Contest took place on Nov19, hosted by the Tiffany Show Pattaya. As 23 contestants from 15 countries held their cooperative breath, the winner of the “To Dream The Dream” contest was announced. And the crown lastly went to Ms Mini from Korea.

After touring the various tourism activities arranged for them from Nov16, the big instance for the host of beautiful lady-boy contestants had finally come to present their collective talents and prettiness on the final stage. In the first round, the committee selected 10 contestants, which was quickly whittled down to the three semi-finalists from America, Japan and Korea.

Of those final three, two had to share their distress as the title Miss International Queen 2010 went to Number 9, Mini from Korea, who won the crown, honour sash, and US$10,000, along with other gifts from sponsors. The other two got the reward of fine compensation prizes, however. The 1st runner up was Number 20, Ami Takeuchi from Japan, who got US$2,000, while the 2nd runner up prize went to Number 7, Stasha Sanchez from America, who got US$1,500.

France Produces Two Beauty Queens

It was for the first time ever, France produced two main beauty queens from rival contests.

On Saturday, 19-year-old business school student Laury Thilleman of Brittany was chosen Miss France 2011 by viewers of television channel TF1 in the traditional competition. But the very next day, that contest’s long-time organizer, Geneviève de Fontenay was busy hosting her own spin-off: the "Miss Nationale-Geneviève de Fontenay 2011" pageant, in which Barbara Morel of Provence, also 19 years old and a student, was crowned by a jury.

Fontenay had been president of the Miss France committee since 1954, but newly sold the competition to French production company Endemol. “France deserves two winners”, Fontenay declared to the French press. “The French will decide the one they prefer. My winners have always adhered to the values I promote - dignity under all circumstances, respect of oneself and of others”.

Though she primarily remained involved in the contest’s organization, disagreements with Endemol led Fontenay to leave the contest entirely. According to widespread rumours, Fontenay felt that the company did not respect her standards for the contestants. She was said to be mainly unhappy with revelations that certain former participants had previously posed nude.

When she said that she intended to set up a rival competition, Endemol took the 78 year-old icon to court. The court ruled in Fontenay’s favour.

Law Student Crowned Great Britain 2010
